I am extremely disappointed that a store that claims to be health oriented is expecting their customers to endanger themselves in order to fill their pockets with our money. No way!! You should have honored freedoms, rights, sovereignty and ACTUAL laws, not fake mandates you are cowering behind. I am taking my business elsewhere and encouraging all my family and friends to boycott. Never to shop there again.

I entered the downtown CNF 2 weeks ago where I have been shopping for over 10 years and asked to speak to the manager about the Alberta Human Rights Act. Within 3 minutes of our conversation she had security call 911. I will never shop at CNF again!

CNF has been my favorite go to sorrow for many items. I will no longer be shopping there due to not honoring medical exemptions. The thing that bothers me the most is this policy goes against what they say their core values are.

They refused to give me service and as I said I was exempt. On top of that had an employee freezing outside (lower to her pay I am sure) at -15... That is all inhumane!!!

I am really disappointed to hear that Community Natural Foods has chosen to jump on the bandwagon and become one of those businesses who think it's a good thing to put store policies in place whose only purpose is to single out, and discriminate against people with medical disabilities. Mask exemptions are still part of the bylaw and were put in place for a reason, but they have chosen to ignore the reasons behind the exemption.
I hope they remember that some of the customers that they are choosing to discriminate against are the same customers that have supported them by shopping at their store since they first opened. My husband and I chose to shop at Community Natural Foods because of the location, the friendly and knowledgeable staff, and the all around great service, that is why it is so disappointing to have to find an alternative to purchase supplements and other items we need. If it comes down to shopping online, we will choose to order from a company that values ALL its customers, and does not have discrimination as one of its policies.

I’m very saddened by the choice to not honor valid exemptions.

**update: based on people's reported former spending @ CNF, people were on average spending $500.00 per month at Community.
as of today, with just under 350 signatures, that tabulates to a potential loss per month of -$175,000.00 (!) and growing.
the only way businesses will stop discriminating is if we stop supporting them financially - looks like we're on our way to succeeding

disappointed to say the least! We need to see more businesses standing up for our God Given Freedoms. You should be setting an example not pushing away your loyal customers. I guess we know who is calling the shots - NOT the Community Natural Health Foods I've supported. Good Bye

Disgusted that a “health store” that I have shopped in weekly for years would turn on their customers! No masks!
